About this property

Lake cottage on the South Bay of Lake Memphremagog. Only 5 minutes from downtown Newport yet watching sunrise over the lake or sunset around the fire pit gives you a feeling of seclusion.

-South Bay Fishing Access 4 minutes away
-Jay Peak Resort 30 minutes away
-Burke Mountain 1 hour away
-Stowe 1 hour away
- Multiple other Lakes and hiking trails within a 40 minute drive

-
The White Owl Cottage is located at the end of a private road with seasonal neighbors. This cottage was built in the 1940's and it was there the name was established. The waters are shallow at this end of the lake (not the best for swimming) but there is 100ft of beach frontage to enjoy with 51 steps down stairs to the water.

- The Cottage has a main floor that is an open concept, with a propane fireplace. Grab a beverage from the coffee bar and walk right to the living room, main bedroom or screened in porch where you can enjoy the sunrise coming up over the lake.

-The basement has been newly redone to include two bedrooms that each have a window facing the lake. The second bathroom has a stand up shower and an open room at the bottom of the stairs with books and games to use.

- Outside there is dining patio set and fire pit with a view of the lake as well as a storage shed that contains different games/toys for guests to use. Top of the stairs is a small deck with more seating to look over the lake.

Guests have access to the entire house, at this time the garage and owners closet in the basement are off limit to guests.

5 minutes from Downtown Newport, multiple restaurants and views, this town is located right on Lake Memphremagog.

The town has on street free parking.

-Parking for 4 vehicles, please stay to the left of the white marking line. The neighbors to the left of the cottage are seasonal in the summer, please do not block their right of way.

-The cottage is surrounded by farming fields, please do not park in the fields and be aware that to make the grass grow the fields are spread with manure 2 times a year.

- The stairs are newly redone but are steep with 51 steps to the bottom.

- The lake water is shallow and "mucky" as the bay was created due to deforestation and the building of a dam in 1883.

-The beach is for guest use with a fire pit and firewood. The dock is the neighbors.

- We do not supply kayaks or paddle boards yet but you are able to rent them from the Great Outdoors in downtown Newport.

Ski vacation

We had a great time during our stay. The property was easy to find and check-in was very easy. Paige was quick to respond to any of our questions. The house was very clean and there was plenty of space for our group. The ride to Jay Peak was 30 minutes away.

Beautiful views, clean, and sharp knives! :)

Paige was so so nice, and the house worked great for our group (4 kids, 4 adults). We had a fire 2 nights at one of the 2 fire pits, and enjoyed cooking in the big open kitchen, well-stocked for foodies who love cooking. (Side note: could use some non-metal spatulas etc. for use on the non-stick pans!) We also enjoyed playing corn hole (in the shed) and playing board games at the big dining room table. Highly recommend!
